Utopia
Kaiza feat. Try and Error Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In a perfect world we would both be together
And in a perfect world, you would get your shit together
But you can't live in my utopia
No, you can't be anything that I want
Your words are getting to me now
And I know that you don't care
How I feel when you're saying all this shit to break me down
You don't realize that you hurt me (Oh)
I can't wait around to see if you will try (No)
I don't wanna leave 'cuz baby, you know I (You know I)
Wanna be here for all the good and the bad (The good and the bad)
But lately all you do is just make me feel sad
In a perfect world we would both be together
And in a perfect world, you would get your shit together
But you can't live in my utopia
No, you can't be anything that I want
You're all that I want
All you do is make me cry these days
Then you twist all my words so then I have to rephrase
You say that I don't try but my efforts only go so far
You never treat these wounds, they never heal, you leave scars
In a perfect world we would be together
But we can't, we can't, we can't
In a perfect world we would both be together
I wish you could see that I got all my shit together




I wish I lived in your utopia
No, you can't be anything that I want
